Purity: Is Wudūʾ Valid with Nail Polish and Wiping Over Transparent Socks?
English:
Question #113
Some women claim that fingernail polish does not create a hindrance for the wuḍū’ and that it is permissible to do wiping over transparent socks. What is your opinion?
Answer #113
If the fingernail polish has a substance that prevents water from reaching the nails, the wuḍū’ is void, and wiping performed on socks is incorrect, however transparent they may be.
